Re: Bitwise and and or

I'm currently trying to do some bitwise arithmetic at V5R1.  Something
along these lines:

ALIGN_MASK       c                 x'C000'
ALIGN_LEFT       c                 x'8000'
ALIGN_RIGHT      c                 x'4000'
ALIGN_CENTER     c                 x'C000'

Now, I want to check a variable called "flags".  In Java, it's pretty
easy:

if ((flags & ALIGN_MASK) == ALIGN_LEFT)

In C the syntax is identical. I know you already found the MI, but you could write a tiny C function that does just what you have above.
